Axion Prelude Aug 2021
in shades of plastic yesterdays
the silhouette carousel spins me around
and around a cold steel cage

and it is your breath i want to drown in
setting free some broken wings
seething life and love and everything
from words we haven't even spoken yet

singing melodies and catchy tunes
we can play them all together
on our heart strings luring suns and moons
and we can watch them set and rise and fall
again and again forever

and the hopelessness would melt away
with a looming whisper of summer
silver-lining an echo of spring

Skip the winter baby
'cause i cant seem to want this
to feel so cold anymore
not without you
and the mornings in each others arms
with the bright lit sky breeding days anew
could keep us warm together

As I am falling into the abyss,
I try to hold on to a thing,
yet there is no way to resist
cold-blooded gravity of swing.

My head chill air begins to hit,
and with the accelerating speed
I'm wondering: "Shall this be it?"
My eyes feel heavy, I think: "Indeed."

A moment later I hear them scream,
as time slows down I face a flow,
I follow it and think: "Bad dream,"
Eyes closed farewelled by dancing snow.

A winter's day on a
Cold snowy November
Crisp snowflakes twirl like dancers
Falling to the ground sticking
Like glue winter has slowly arrived
And bitter coldness in the air

Bitter chill and cold winds blowing
Grey sky and grim seens

Winter has slowly arrived

Heavy snow over the hills
Once beautiful and green

Winter has wreaked havoc
And the snow is still falling down

Frozen leaves on the ground
Winter has arrived cold chill  

Not a star sparkling in the night sky

Everything frozen as you walk by

Winter with it's wickedness has
Arrived leaving it's beauty in it's path
For the whole world to stop and see
Beautiful Winter has arrived and everyone
Can see.
Snow ❄️🌨️
Cold 🥶🥶🥶
Life 🧬

Streetlights glow softly tonight, oh such a simple delight,
Fleeting through the blurred streets, how quick my heartbeats,
Footsteps in snow; paired with faces aglow,
Pitter-pat they go,
Down in Trafalgar Square

A Nordic pine so fine, a true one of a kind,
Upon which one could not scribe such beauty in mere rhyme,
And you'll know it's the right time
When ears hear tunes of glee, eyes see sights carefree,
For it is the season of joy and celebration,
Down in Trafalgar Square
soon we'll say goodbye
to winter's boreal order
of freezing disdain

An erratic cold sigh
swoons through the valley
last winter hollow kiss
portends a grim frenzy

Clogged icy pine needles
under snowy blanket
lying on the forest path
love with spring has chilled

Waiting to melt
after a dewy dawn
winter reigns once again
before letting the sun in
When winter needs to leave. :)

Take me back to your whisper in the winter wind.
Take me back to warm hands for cold feet.
Take me back to soft lips meant for my own.
Even tape mine shut so I won’t speak.

Effervescence; a new reality is calming me.
Reminiscence and sentimentality in harmony.
May I reside deep inside that big room you hide,
With its four walls closing in on me?

I welcome its embrace.
And let it be my last.
For I know this will last.
We passed by so fast in the past, but found the
Windows to your soul are Windows to my future.
So go. Digress!
Crush gentle bones in a rush of pheromones.
Just know, Princess,
That fleeting glimpse left an imprint on a prince.
No sooner does a house become a home
Than a heart becomes a home.
Ghosts looming at the front door
Can’t comprehend a love they’ve never known.
The smell of fresh summer peaches fill the air,
a willow tree blows gently under a sunny abyss.
Silence fills the caterpillars cocoon and here I lay under the moon.
Hot night, soft breeze, smell of whiskey underneath the trees.
Crops are a grow'n' and the farmers fiddle sits on the hay.
Bonfires, beers and roasting fish on a smear rod snicket.
In the distance the scare crow stands tall and strong to protect the farmers land.
Animals squawk, hibernate and lock themselves in for a winter cold coming ahead.
Snowflakes fall, warm stew to be made by mom, morning comes, cup of chow time to relax with grandpa Jo.
Seasons pass and Spring is here at last,
muddy puddles, ***** feet, time to plant more growing seeds.
Life is beautiful, so is time, make it right and you shall find,
the touch, and warmth of every goodnight
Life's Seasons, Summer to Spring
This frozen hellscape
Where winter cries forever
A glacier of tears
